History

In 2002, Athletic Bilbao introduced a women's section to their football activities, absorbing a local club Leioa EFT. At the same time they introduced a women's reserve team (which had been established by Leioa the previous year)[1] with the aim of developing players for the senior side.

After a single season in the

Primera Nacional – where they have remained since, winning their regional group in the competition four times (most recently in 2017)[2]
but being ineligible for promotion.

Athletic B, whose players are usually between 16 and 21 years of age, are also regular participants in the Copa Vasca, a regional tournament for lower-league teams, and have won the trophy six times.

Below the reserve level Athletic have a C-team, introduced in 2019 and quickly promoted to the Basque provincial league,[3] and a girls' cadet (under-15) team, introduced in 2017 and competing at local youth level.[4] In common with all other teams fielded by the club, only players who meet their recruitment policy of having a connection to the 'greater Basque Country' are eligible to join.[5]
